On April 7, 2025, the Department of Information Systems bid farewell to Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. Jörg Becker during his “last” lecture.

Since 1990, Jörg Becker has significantly shaped the department and the field of Information Systems. His research has left a lasting impression in the areas of process management, data management, e-government, information modeling, retail information systems and hybrid value creation.

He is also the founder of the European Research Center for Information Systems (ERCIS) and currently heads the research group “Digital Mittelstadt of the Future”, which researches innovative solutions for the digital transformation of municipalities and local administrations.

As part of the farewell, colleagues, long-time companions and former and current doctoral students looked back on three decades of academic excellence, leadership and mentorship - all wrapped up in a creative and inspiring program.

Fortunately, this is not really a farewell, as Jörg Becker will remain with the department as a senior professor. We would like to thank him warmly and look forward to the next chapter!

The day began with a vision workshop, using the innovative “Lego Serious Play” method. This hands-on approach encouraged creative and collaborative thinking and led to several inspiring models that reflected visions for the future of the department.

In addition, there were stimulating discussions on topics such as teaching, research, and knowledge transfer. Together, participants explored new approaches to strengthen the department’s impact and further development in the field of Information Systems.

A big thank you to everyone who contributed their ideas, creativity, and commitment!
